President Trump spent several moments during his address to the joint session of Congress on Tuesday honoring the bravest among us: our soldiers. Upon the mention of our military, the entire room--Republican and Democrat--were on their feet. Well, almost everyone.
Unbelievably, a handful of Democratic women who had dressed in white (for reasons hard to understand) to protest the president, remained seated at the mention of our soldiers.
You would think supporting our military would be a bipartisan issue.
Shortly after that, Trump recognized fallen Navy SEAL William "Ryan" Owens, who died in a raid on an al Qaeda compound in Yemen in January. His widow, Carryn Owens, was one of Trump's special guests tonight, sitting right beside his daughter Ivanka. What followed was a beautiful tribute to her brave husband. Throughout the president's remarks, Mrs. Owens glanced to the sky and let her tears fall. It was one of the most emotional moments ever to occur at a joint session of Congress.

It really exposed the contrast of the moment. Dana Loesch said it best.
All you women in white — you better get a look at Carryn Owens. That’s the face of strength. #Jointsession— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) March 1, 2017
I guess those women in white forgot to wear their white hoods.
The Wicked Wenches in White.
The KKK women’s club.
And they sprinted for the exits like they had the back door green apple trots as soon as Trump finished. It was a shamefully rude display
At least they left their pussy hats at home.
I thought they were surrendering before being destroyed in a Twitter War.
White was the uniform of women’s suffragettes in the distant past. Apparently these female legislators haven’t yet received the memo that women can vote.
whited sepulchers
Oppppps sorry about that.
They really (really) looked childish.

The nurses?
I also noticed the "Women in White" remained seated when President Trump said he wanted America to defeat ISIS.
Was that really necessary? We know who the Klan is, OK?
Why were the Democrats dressed like Klan members?
Jeez.... next time include [width=’400’] inside your [img] command.
How many times do you think that bunch of robots were told
NO APPLAUSE
NO STAND
NO SMILE
NO YES
YOU ARE THERE TO EMBARRASS HIM.
DO NOTHING TO SUPPORT HIM.
YOU GET PAID 1/2 UP FRONT AND THE REST UPON COMPLETION.
Probably still looking for the rest of their money...
Love it when a LIB plan works in our favor....
Those idiots really stood out by not standing.....
